Hi Family! As you probably know, in one of our most recent updates, we've released our full Japanese Voice-Over localization for Children of Morta. We're extremely proud to have on board, as our Narrator, the industry veteran Takaya Hashi, whose roles include ones on [b]Fist of the North Star[/b] ([i]Toki, Amiba[/i]), [b]Naruto Shippuden[/b] ([i]Kakuzu[/i]), [b]Sailor Moon S[/b] ([i]Sergei Azimov[/i], [i]Ventriloquist[/i]), [b]Full Metal Alchemist[/b] ([i]Majhal[/i]), [b]Beastars[/b] ([i]Boss[/i]), [b]Pokémon[/b] ([i]Munō[/i]), [b]Metal Gear Solid[/b] ([i]Skull Face[/i]), [b]Harry Potter[/b] ([i]Severus Snape[/i]) or [b]Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt [/b]([i]Emhyr var Emreis[/i]), to name just a few over the 36 years he's been a voice actor for anime and video games! [previewyoutube=b84o0O4CYn8;full][/previewyoutube] All of this was possible thanks to our partner in Japan, DMM GAMES, who helped us release and promote the game within the country - please visit their [url=https://dlsoft.dmm.com]official website[/url] if you are looking for your very own Japanese edition of the game. The DMM GAMES team was able to ask about Mr. Hashi's thoughts on the whole recording process: [b]ENGLISH[/b]

• [i] Q. What was the most important/difficult part of recording Children of Morta?
• A. I didn't have any pictures or images at the time, so I had to imagine the situation in my mind while recording. There were a lot of parts that I couldn't visualize, so it was a tough job, haha. [/i]

• [i] Q. Do you have a message for people looking forward to the game?
• A. There were many differences in sound length between the original and Japanese, so I asked the director to think about it, or I tried myself. I haven't seen the game yet and I can't wait. Hope all users enjoy it![/i]

[b]JAPANESE[/b]

• [i] Q. Children of Mortaの収録において力を入れた(難しかった)ところを教えてください。
• A. そのときどきの絵がまだ無かったので、状況を自分の中でイメージしながら収録しました。イメージできない箇所も多々あり、なかなか手ごわい作品でしたね(笑) [/i]

• [i] Q. ゲームを楽しみにしている方に向けてメッセージをお願い致します。
• A. 原音と日本語の長さに相違がある場合が多くあり、演出の方に考えていただいたり、自分で変えてみたりしました。どんな映像になったのかまだ拝見していないので、私自身も楽しみにしています。皆さんもどうぞお楽しみに。[/i]

We have literal CHILLS listening to Mr. Hashi's performance, and we hope you enjoy his rendition of the Narrator just as much! With best wishes, Dead Mage & 11 bit studios
